Chicken for tacos

Complexity: easily
Servings: 16 - 20
This recipe is perfect for a quick dinner after work. Small pieces of chicken breast simmered in a spicy tomato sauce make the base for delicious tacos. You can make a large batch ahead of time, then portion them out into individual bags and freeze them if you're not using them right away. To serve, reheat the chicken, spoon it into small tortillas, and top it with the rest of the traditional taco toppings. These include shredded cabbage, cilantro, sliced avocado, salsa, jalapeños, and sour cream.
